Oh, you've got to have frie-ends!

The o! so understanding friend who pointed out the zebra hanging in the tree was kind enough to send a few of my photos back to me that I'd sent in her direction after a photo hike!  (Wow! It's almost like backing up your hard drive on a regular basis so you still have your data when your computer gets stolen!  Not.)

So, courtesy of my photo-hiking friend, I also have these lovely American Avocets who were dancing in the low tide of the Charleston Slough at Palo Alto Baylands a few weeks ago.

Thanks!  (Aren't friends great?!)
